The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)
Chapter 2236 He’s Tempted

Sebastian did not rush to agree and just nodded with a smile. He looked at the others and said, "Shall we move on to the next person? After everyone is done, we can talk about cooperation." Everyone's expressions changed from doubt to expectation.

Out of all the guests, Nicole and Eric were the only ones who did not experience it.

Nicole was not interested, and Eric was not bothered to try.

They did not notice that Jeff's face paled when someone helped him down from that wall.

However, he subconsciously raised his head to look in Nicole and Eric's direction.

The emotions in his dark eyes were restrained and forbearing.

Jeff was in a tangle.

"Your internal organs have been damaged to varying degrees, and both your legs are fractured. Although you've been rescued, it's recommended to amputate your lower legs. Otherwise, necrosis will occur. We will provide you with the best treatment plan. If you're willing to use our customized organs, your new legs will grow from the incision of your amputation within a week. Within a month, you'll be able to stand and use your legs freely. After a year, you can run, jump, and do strenuous exercise. We advise you to make a decision as soon as possible..."

The voice just now gently told Jeff the harsh truth.

At the same time, it threw out a temptation that was enough to change his stance.

The offer was so attractive, so how could he not be tempted?

He had only come to see Nicole and thought that he would be satisfied with just one look.

However, at this moment, he did not want to let her go.

If Sebastian could restore his body to its original state, which would allow him to stand upright by Nicole's side, then his life would be meaningful.

However, he could see that although Sebastian's project bore great results, it was too cruel.

If it was made public, it would be criticized and banned by the whole world.

His conscience was swaying as humanity and morality were at stake.

Sebastian walked up to Nicole and asked politely, "Ms. Stanton, you really don't want to try it?"

Nicole shook her head.

Sebastian sighed regretfully.

"Well, I hope we'll have a chance to cooperate again in the future."

Nicole nodded.

Although Sebastian felt regretful, other guests told him secretly that they were very interested in this project.

If he set up his own project and specifically targeted these rich people all over the world, he could also make a lot of money, but it was not enough and too dangerous to do so. Sebastian was not powerful enough to minimize all future risks.

If a world-class elite could recommend him, then he would not just get the wealth that only these few customers brought.

That was why he spent so much time gathering these people here.

Thus, even without Nicole Stanton's investment, he still had other options.

It was not a loss for him either way.

The richer people were, the more they cherished their lives.

Nicole wanted to go out to take a breather, and Yasmin kindly led her to a nearby rest area.

They could see the beautiful seabed there, which was really soothing.

However, Nicole could only think about the scene she saw in the laboratory, so she was not in the mood to appreciate the scenery.

Yasmin served her some water and snacks.

Nicole thanked her with a smile and looked at her.

"What does it feel like to be resurrected from the dead?"

Yasmin smiled and said, "I wouldn't want to be resurrected if I simply just survived because life for me was meaningless back then. I was bullied everywhere I went."

Nicole frowned slightly. "My friend investigated that someone pretended to be you before. Are you here to replace your brother?"

Yasmin nodded and lowered her head with a dismal face.

"I can help you," Nicole said to her.

Yasmin gritted her teeth and shook her head without hesitation.

"No thanks. My brother was the reason I ended up like that. I found him back then, but he refused to show his face. Then, my evil sister-in-law tricked me into going somewhere else. That's how I got raped and murdered. I will never acknowledge him as my brother again!"

Nicole was shocked for a moment. She immediately apologized.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't know there was such a story."

Yasmin shook her head. "It's okay. You're all good people."

"Good people? How do you know?"

Yasmin lowered her eyes slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Because you and Mr. Ferguson didn't agree to invest in Mr. Shaw's project."

Nicole's eyes flickered slightly. She said with a smile, "You're saying that there's a problem with this project?"

"I don't know anything about the project. I just know that I'm really grateful to him for saving me. Even though he only treats me as an experimental product, I'm still grateful to him. He gave me another chance at life, which no one else can."

Nicole nodded. "That's true."

No one would believe Yasmin's experience even after Sebastian filmed it.

After all, the thought of being resurrected from the dead was too ridiculous...

Nicole thought, 'If Sebastian could really resurrect someone, wouldn't Clayton...'

Her heart instantly lifted.

However, Nicole did not even replace out whether Clayton was alive or dead at the moment. So, even if she had a way to resurrect him, she could not do anything.

Nicole pursed her lips and said, "The price to be paid for the achievement of this project is really shocking and cruel. If the international media replaces out, people will definitely condemn the project. Besides, is this considered illegal?"

She frowned in thought.

Although various animal protection organizations from the United Nations would ban this project, legally speaking, this ocean did not belong to any country.

Moreover, this undersea tunnel was extremely mysterious. It was like a huge underwater research institute.

Finding its location would also be difficult.

Yasmin said, "I don't know if it's illegal or not, but Mr. Shaw is very confident. After all, he's doing this for a great cause."

Nicole looked at her, smiled, and did not continue the topic.

Soon, Eric came out.

When he saw Yasmin standing next to Nicole, his face darkened instantly.

"What are you doing here?"

Yasmin froze for a moment and looked at Nicole in a daze.

"..."

Nicole pursed her lips. "Yasmin took me out because she saw that I wasn't feeling well. Mr. Ferguson, have you finished the tour?"

Eric frowned and sat opposite her.

"All of them seemed to be convinced and wanted to invest in that project, but I'm not that stupid. I won't do something so immoral and frowned upon."

Yasmin paused and suddenly said, "How is this immoral? Isn't it great that people can have a healthy body? Otherwise, why would you go to a hospital when you're sick? Why is it so frowned upon when this is for medical progress?"

Eric's face was glum, dark, and cold.

"Progress? Progress in exchange for killing everything in the ocean? Have you asked if those sea creatures wanted to go extinct? Are those animals willing to sacrifice for your survival? I think you're taking it for granted. Do you think it's amazing that you survived? You survived, but so many animals died. What can you be happy about?"
